Abstract: In a previous work, we associated with any submartingale X of class (Sigma), defined on a filtered probability space (Omega,mathcalF,mathbbP,(mathcalFt)tgeq0) satisfying some technical conditions, a sigma-finite measure mathcalQ on (Omega,mathcalF), such that for all tgeq0, and for all events LambdatinmathcalFt: mathcal{Q} [Lambda_t, gleq t] = mathbb{E}_{mathbb{P}} [mathds{1}_{Lambda_t} X_t], where g is the last hitting time of zero by the process X. The measure mathcalQ, which was previously studied in particular cases related with Brownian penalisations and problems in mathematical finance, enjoys some remarkable properties which are detailed in this paper. Most of these properties are related to a certain class of nonnegative martingales, defined as the local densities (with respect to mathbbP) of the finite measures which are absolutely continuous with respect to mathcalQ. From the properties of the measure mathcalQ, we also deduce a universal class of penalisation results of the probability measure mathbbP with a large class of functionals: the measure mathcalQ appears to be the unifying object in these problems.
